Some time later, Rygel is wrapped in a blanket as he explains that the parasite was in a crate he was "inspecting." He says, "It was actually feeding off my essence, my thoughts." The bugs certainly aren't discriminating diners. D'Argo says that he remembers the other Rygel standing over him after he was attacked by the Vorc. Chiana wonders why the parasite didn't imitate D'Argo. Zhaan says, "I suspect it tried, but D'Argo's reaction to the venom was so strong, it didn't have enough time to complete its task." Rygel asks how they possibly could have been taken in by the imitation, and D'Argo says it was a perfect copy of him. Rygel sniffs, "Perhaps to undiscerning observers like yourselves. Fortunately, that courageous Vorc was here to rescue me!" Well, that answers all of the questions. Except, of course, how Zhaan was able to come up with an antidote when all of the bugs were killed.

Cargo bay. Aeryn is sitting on the floor, holding the Jekyll-Vorc tenderly, with Crichton beside her. Pilot tells them that the Vorc is happy. Aeryn isn't happy, even though Crichton's supportively resting his hand on her shoulder. The Vorc whimpers a little. Pilot translates, "'End. End.' He knows his time is near." Aeryn looks at the Vorc and says, "I am so, so sorry." The Vorc reaches up and brushes Aeryn's chin with one long finger. Which should be sweet, but it just kinda looks like it's poking at her. It strokes her face gently, and then closes its eyes and dies. Which means Aeryn's covered with Vorc shit. Again. As Brock says, they never show that part on TV. Crichton leans his head down to Aeryn's shoulder, which is sweet. Unless he's just sniffing her leather vest to block out the smell of Vorc poo.
